However, apart from these features, Toyota Etios J is lacking some of the basic comfort features that you would like to see in your sedan. The car misses out on power steering, power windows, music system and electrically adjustable ORVMs. But, the gearshifts are very smooth and the air conditioner is very effective, that manage to cope up with the missing features.

Engine and Performance

The engine segment of Toyota Etios J is quite sound. The sedan has been powered by 1.5L 2NR-FE petrol motor that has a displacement of 1496cc. this engine is strong , bold and robust and is capable of producing peak power of 90PS at the rate of 5600rpm along with maximum torque of 132Nm at the rate of 3000rpm.

This makes the car zoom away with a top speed of 174kmph and reaches from 0 to 100 km per hour in an impressive 12.56 seconds . on the whole, technically, Toyota Etios J is not a disappointment and makes sure that it is fun on the road and amazing to drive.

Braking and handling

The braking and handling of Toyota Etios J is humble. There are a lot of things that are missing from the sedan. The major reason behind this is that because Toyota Etios J is a base variant and due to cost cutting many things have been chopped down from the mode. The handling of the car is okay but not spectacular as the car misses out on electric power steering. Apart from that, the suspension system of the car is nice, which comprise of McPherson Strut for the front and Torsion Beam for the rear axle. This makes sure that the drive in Toyota Etios J provided you a smooth and bump-free ride.  The braking system is also good and comprises of ventilated disc brakes on the front and drum brakes at the rear. Sadly the car doesn’t feature ABS, EBD and brake assist thereby making the braking department a bit on the down side.

Safety Features

The safety department of Toyota Etios J petrol is not very impressive. The car has a good braking system and seat belts. But, the sedan variant clearly lacks the advanced safety features, such as anti-lock braking system, electronic brake force distribution system, airbags or central locking system. However, the door ajar warning facility is present, but that is not enough for the sedan.

Pros 

Decent mileage, good performance on road

Cons 

Lack of numerous comfort and safety features.
